Profile-guided optimization: Art, Method & Adoption

In computer programming, profile-guided optimization (PGO, sometimes pronounced as pogo), also known as profile-directed feedback (PDF) or feedback-directed optimization (FDO), is the compiler optimization technique of using prior analyses of software artifacts or behaviors ("profiling") to improve the expected runtime performance of the program.
